What you can pick here

Typical US ranges from extension service crop calendars, not this farm's own dates. Seasons shift by region and weather, so check with the farm.

Before you go

  • Check that it is open. Look at the farm website: hours and crops change with the weather.
  • Bring cash and a card. Some farms take only one.
  • Water, sun protection and closed-toe shoes.
  • Sunscreen and a hat
  • A cooler for the drive home
  • Shallow containers so fruit does not bruise, if allowed
  • Ask about pets before you bring a dog.

More tips: your first u-pick visit.

How to pick like a pro

  • Is it ripe?

    Peaches are ready when the background color has no green and the fruit gives slightly near the stem. Sweet cherries should be fully colored and firm; taste one.

  • How to pick

    Roll peaches off in your palm; do not squeeze. Pick cherries with the stem attached, pulling the stem, not the fruit.

  • Best time to go

    Morning, before the fruit gets warm. Cherry seasons can be only two or three weeks, so check picking reports.

  • Keep it fresh

    Ripen firm peaches on the counter, stem side down, then refrigerate. Refrigerate cherries unwashed.
